Toyota has confirmed to Pitpass that Gustav Brunner has left the team.
"Toyota Motorsport can confirm that Gustav Brunner has left the team," said a spokesman, this morning (Monday). "Toyota has made operational changes to its chassis department as part of a continuous improvement process which has seen the implementation of three chassis development project groups within its Formula 1 team.
"With three groups running in parallel, one focussing on the current car, one concentrating on the next stage of development and the third looking at advanced design, the position of Chief Designer has become obsolete."
The Austrian has been linked with a move to Scuderia Toro Rosso, the Red Bull owned team that bought Minardi, with which he spent much of his career.
